m FOB FARM AMD GARDEN. TO MAKE IIENS LAY. Put two or more quarts of water in a kettle, advisos an exchange, and one SArge seed pepper, or two small ones, then put the kettle over tho Are. When the water boils, stir in the coarse Indian meal until you havo a thick mush. Let it cook an hour or so; feed hot. Horse radish chopped flno and stirred into mush as prepared in the above direc tions, will help. We hear a good deal of complaint about not getting eggs. To such we would warmly recommend cooked feed fed hot. Boiled apple skins seasoned with red popper, or boiled potatoes seasoned with horse rad ish, are good for feed, much better than uncooked food. Any suoh warm stimulating foods are valuablo aids in producing eggs. Clean .nests arc another help. Anything that puts the fowl in good physical condi tion, as pure water and warm houses in winter, will pay for itaelf four fold. Oorn, when fed the hen by itself, has a tendency to fatten rather than produce the more profitable egg laying. A spoonful of sulphur stirred with their feed occasionally will rid them of ver min, and tone up their systems.—Farm, Field and Stoc'cman. SEEDS AND SEED SAVING. The first stop iu seed saving h to start with a good selection, the labor of another’s hand. Whother you have made such must ba determined by ob servation and comparison. If your plants arc inferior to those you see olse- where, do not save seeds from them, but cast them aside and commence anew. If your several strains are superior to others, carefully select the best flowers for seed; do not choose the first, neither the last, as the most perfect forms and positive colors will be developed in tho intermediate stage of tho plant’s ex istence, as it is then that the plant has the greatest vitality and power of re production. Do not allow the plant to ripen more seed than you may require for the next year’s planting. This will allow the plant to throw its whole strength into tho perfection of tho seed you de sire to save. Cut oR all others a3 soon as the flowers fade. If the plant is al lowed to ?ipen seed freely, it will soon cease blooming, having accomplished its mission. If not allowed to ripen seed it will continue to flower the whole season. As a means of reproduction, a single capsule of petunia, or of balsam of any desired color, will be amply suf- ticent for the next year's stock, and tho same is true of mo3t other flowering plants. —American Cultivator. MULCHING CROPS. With crops that are to be kept grow ing during the summer, it will often be found quite an item to mulch after the last cultivation is given. The principal gain in mulching is that it keeps the soil cooler, and retains moisture already in the soil, so that a growth will be maintained oven when the weather is dry and hot. Potatoes, vines of all kinds, tomatoes, melons, cucumbers and squash are often materially bene fited by applying a good mulch, giving thorough cultivation while it is con sidered necessary, and then mulohing. One of the best materials that can bo used for mulching this class of plants is partially-rotted bagasse. Apply a good layer around each plant after thoroughly stirring tho surface. Old wheat straw, corn-stalks, or even weeds and grass, are good materials to$iso for mulching. All of this clais of plants require .considerable moisturo iu order to make tho best growth and yield, and in many • cases it is a choico between supplying moisture by watering and mulching, and if thorough work has been done iu giving clean cultivation, and the soil is in a good tilth, tho more economical plan is to apply a good mulch; while, iu addition to this, it is possiblo to plant and grow a crop much later than could be dono otherwise. »Iu somo lo calities tho risk of drouth is much great er than in others; and where a locality is subject to drouth, it is difficult to so- ouro profitable crops wkuo. planted late, unless artificial watering or manuriug is supplied, iu order that tho plant may obtain necessary moisture. It is best in applying a mulch to sup ply in time before hot, dry weather fairly sets in, as much better rosults cau be secured than if this is delayed until later in the season. In addition to aid ing to retain moisture, a good mu'ch prevents the growth of weeds, avoiding, to a considerable extent, tho nccesSity of late cultivation. —Prairie Farmer. A FEW HINTS ON MILKING. Milking is a work that should bo un derstood in order to successfully man age a dairy, says an Ohio farmer in Prairie Farmer, or tho dairy portion of the farm; yet how many over think of- tho most successful way of extracting the milk? We have seen milkers lake two teats and milk them dry while the othors are untouched. This is a cleat# case of cruelty to the cow. The udder of a cow will not holl the milk that is carried by a fair milker, and since tho milk is given down into the udder from all the glands at the same time it must necessarily follow that those from which none has been taken must bo filled to the utmost possibility, and cause the cow to suffer from tho pressure of the milk in tho udder. Many persons di vide tho milk into “fore-milk” and “strippings,” thus having two grades either to sell or churn, skimming tha fore-milk, and churning the strippings with the cream of the fore-milk, thus dividing the milking of a cow into two periods. Even' this is not enough. The milk should bo taken from each teat as fast as can be done, and not allow the udder to become too full in any sec tion. Train the cow to stand as quiet as possible while milking, so that the milker can have both hands to use at the same time. A cow will never milk so well when she is allowed to suffer from over-crowding of udder. Another point is to have all excitement cease while milking, and allow no stoppago until you have finished. A cow be comes restless if she is kept longer than necessary, consequently will not give the milk down freely. By all means use both hands, and extract tho milk evenly from the teats; accomplish this by sitting on the side most convenient to you. The best result is what is wanted; use your judgment in accom plishing this. You will find it always pays to do your work right. HEMLOCK HEDGES. H. A. Miller writes to tho American Agriculturist that he set out a hemlock hedge last year, that many of the plants havo died, and now ho would like to know how to proceed in order to replace them and secure a good hedge. Tho thing to be taken into consideration is tho soil, and if it is a heavy clay there is little use in plant ing hemlock, for who evor saw a hem lock forest grow on such soils, unless overlaid with a heavy deposit of vege table mold? If tho soil is loam, or even sand, it is w5.ll' adapted to the hemlock, and nii>/ be enriched if noces- sary, by tho addition of any old and thoroughly decomposed manure. It would bo useless to undertake to set tho plants in the spaces whore others have died out, for it could scarcely be done properly, and tho better way is, take up tho entire hedge, throw away tho dead and fceblo plants, and resot the healthy at one end of tho lino of tho hedge, and fill out with fresh plants of tho same size to bo obtained at some nursery. When all are in place, prune away at least one-third of tho entire top with hedge shears, and in a straight line on both sides and top. The first pruning of a hedgo should bo given as soon as possiblo after tho last plant is secured in place, and that is also tho time to decide upoa tho propor form in which it is to be trained, and which should bo rigorously adhered to in after years. Evergreen hedges should be trained in a conical form, with a sharp point, in order to prevont the lodgment of snow on tho top in wiutor. The pruning should bo dono early in spring, or just beforo tho buds push into growth, and at no other time. If large fruit or forest trees are permitted to grow near a hedge, the latter will sooner or later suRer from the crowding of tho roots, or shade, and perhaps both. As a rule, no treo of large growth should be permitted within twenty feet of any hedge, and fifty feet would ba still bettor. Plants one to three feet high aro largo ouough to begin hedgo with, and if those havo been trans planted onco or twice in a nursery, not one in a thousand should bo lost whoa removed to tho hodgo-row.

A French scientific agriculturist, after almost thirty years of assiduous re searches on the experimental farm at Vincennes, has made a remarkable and important discovery of a relation existing between the color of plants and the rich ness of s ills in fertilizing agents. He finds that the color of the leaves of plants undergoes marked change when ever the soil is lacking in phosphate pot ash, lime or- nitrogren. The color re mains light green or turns to yellow when the soil is deficient in any of these ingredients. When none of tho fertiliz ing elements ore wanting the color is dark green. By his experiments he lumishes agriculturists with positive in dications by which they can determine with tho greatest facility what kind of fertilizer the soil needs most or in what elements of fertility it abounds, enabling them to “make two blades of grass grow where now grows one.” American Enterprise. Although it has been asserted that sealskins cannot be properly dressed and dyed in America, several firms in New York annually trim out thousands of skins prepared in their own establish ment by American workmen; so large is the demand for their goods that they cannot wholly meet it. An encouraging outlook, this, for home industries. That’s the ({nestlon. A witness who had given his evidence in such a way as satisfied everybody in court that he was committing perjury, being cautioned by the judge, said, at last: “My lord, you may believe me or not, but I have been wedded to truth from my infancy.” “Yes, sir,” said Maule, “but the question is, how long have you been a widower?” “Qto be dead and dono with the trouble That fills each day with a dreary pain," This Is the moan of many a woman Who thinks she can never be well again. “It were better for me anil better for otliere If I were dead," and their tears fail fast.

Danger from Catarrh Catarrh Is an exceedingly disagreeable disease, its varied symptoms—discharge at the nose, bad breath, pain between the eyes, coughing, choking sensation, ringing noises in tho ears, etc.—being not only troublesome to the sufferer, but offensive to others. Catarrh is also dangerous, because it may lead to bronchitis or consumption. Being a blood disease, the true method of cure Is to purify the blood by taking Hood's Sarsaparilla. “For several years I had been troubled with a kind of asthma or catarrh in my throat. My wife wanted me to try a bottle of Hood's Sarsaparilla. I must say I was very much beueflted by using it and would recommend it very highly."^Elias P. Bev- iuks, Omaha, Neb.
